What do you have against Pageau?

Hes one of our best players. Should be kept.

On that note the guys I see getting dealt: Hoffman, Brassard and Ceci. Possibly smith. No one will take our garbage.

At the end of the day the focus should be moving Phaneuf or Ryan. A lot of Ottawa's problems go away by moving at least one of those contracts.

I do think Brass is our best player to trade based on his term and low AAV. His cap hit is $5M but his actual salary is $3.5M. That's huge for anyone looking for a 2a or 2b center down the stretch. But this is also the reason why I don't see the Sens trading him. He's cheap.

Pageau is a fan favorite because he’s a small guy that is not afraid and he’s had a few huge playoff games. He is a good player but fans overvalue him. Either White or Brown should be playing in that spot. Pageau would get a really nice return from a team like Pitt that is desperate for an experience 3LC.
